The aim of this study is to characterize atrial fibrillatory rate (AFR) extracted from a cohort of continuously monitored atrial fibrillation (AF) patients as function of episode duration and onset time. The f-wave signal used to compute the AFR was extracted from a single lead ECG strip of the AF episodes stored in an Implantable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) in a cohort of 99 patients. The f-wave signal
Digital technologies have undoubtedly changed the outline of the organization of the modern society and indicated an emergence of the new era of its governance. Such manifestations of digitalization as social media, platform economy, big data, AI, fintech, blockchain and internet of things have become an integral and sometimes even unnoticeable part of our life having brought up, on the one hand,
This article presents and discusses the case study “Scraping the surface,” aworkshop about sustainable design held for master’s students of different design majors at the FHNW Academy of Art and Design. Through marketing we, as consumers, are bombarded with products claiming to be sustainable. As a result, sustainability has become a buzz word. “Scraping the surface” highlighted the complex factor
Direct photolysis of the emerging contaminant 2-(thiocyanomethylthio) benzothiazole (TMCTB) was performed in aqueous solution at different concentrations with high-pressure mercury lamp (5.0, 8.0, 13.0, 16.0, 20.0, 23.0, 27.0, 35.0, 40.0, 45.0, and 50.0 mg L− 1) and with natural sunlight radiation (6.0, 30.0, and 60.0 mg L− 1). TCMTB underwent rapid degradation by direct photolysis with a high-pre
Limited knowledge of African historical inequality trajectories hampers our understanding of inequality outcomes today and leads to a major omission in debates about global inequality. Economies in colonial Africa were characterized by a process of export-oriented commercialization. We hypothesize that this process itself, the capital intensity of the commodities produced, and the relative importa
This work presents an assessment of the precipitation deficit in the São Francisco River Basin (SFRB) based on temporal, seasonal and regional analyses of two decades of precipitation data products derived from satellite missions launched since 1997. The temporal analyses were performed by means of three 3-month SPI time series, consisting of 250 values each derived from TRMM, CHIRPS and PERSIANN-
The podocyte is a specialized cell type critically involved in maintaining the selective filtration barrier of the kidney. Podocytes are primary or secondary targets for a multitude of kidney diseases. Despite intense investigation, the transcriptome and proteome of human podocytes remain incompletely characterized. Here, we analyzed publicly available RNA-Seq data from human kidneys (n = 85) to c
Excessive work among adolescents may compromise educational development. Without home appliances, household work can take over 50 h a week and an additional 30 h when an infant is present. School-aged girls are often tasked with doing laundry, which is time-consuming and inflexible without a washing machine. We determined the association between washing machine ownership and school attendance amon
Sekundär användning av e-hälsodata är ett viktigt steg i att direkt och indirekt stärka vården, både inom Sverige och EU. Inom kort förväntas den uppmärksammade EU-förordningen om ett European Health Data Space (EHDS) antas. Genom förordningen kommer ett gemensamt hälsodataområde skapas vilket bland annat möjliggör sekundär användning av uppemot 450 miljoner EU-medborgares e-hälsodata för exempelvSecondary use of e-health data is an important step in directly and indirectly strengthening healthcare, both in Sweden and the EU. The anticipated EU regulation on a European Health Data Space (EHDS) will create a common health data space, allowing for the secondary use of the e-health data of up to 450 million EU citizens for research, innovation and decision-making. This has the potential to re
The topic of Basic Colour Terms (BCT) and their proposed universality has long been a source of debate within linguistics. Whether colour terms (as symbols) fill lexical gaps of presumed universal colour categories (as senses) or not is relevant for the debate regarding linguistic relativity: the hypothesis about the influence of language on the way we think. Until now, there has been a focus on
Under vårterminen 2021 genomfördes en avhandling på Volvo GTO. Volvo Lastvagnar är en av de största aktörerna inom fordonsindustrin och levererar lastbilar över hela världen. Företaget erbjuder lastbilar som kan anpassas och modiferas efter kundens önskemål. Att erbjuda lastbilar med hög anpassnings- och förändringsgrad innebär en hel del påfrestningar på systemet vilket kräver att CAD-ritningar,During the spring term of 2021 a thesis was carried out at Volvo Trucks GTO. Volvo Trucks is one of the largest and most successful actors in the automotive industry and delivers trucks all over the world. The company offers trucks that can be customized and adapted according to the customer wishes. Offering highly customizable trucks puts a lot of stresses on the system which requires that CAD-
This thesis focuses on flexible work, known as telework, that is done through the use of information communication technology (ICT) devices in the entertainment, new media and arts sector. Fieldwork was conducted with independent professionals who work either as a producer / director, editor or motion graphic artist for the entertainment, new media and arts sector in the Los Angeles area. When wo
Finns det någon poäng med att övertyga gästerna om varumärkets storhet om inte de anställda är med på tåget? Det har påpekats att utan motiverade och nöjda anställda riskerar varumärkets och ledningens löften till gästerna att bli tomma, då det är personalen som ska leverera den utlovade servicen. Vi anser det intressant att undersöka hur företag inom hotellbranschen arbetar med att motivera sin p

Syfte: Utredningens syfte är att studera och analysera IGS strategiska process samt undersöka hur applicerbara de tre strategiska synsätten är på fallföretaget ifråga. Vi har även för avsikt att se hur stor effekt den föränderliga omvärlden har på för
Static program analysis plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality and security of software applications by detecting bugs and potential vulnerabilities in the code. Traditionally, these analyses are performed offline, either as part of the continuous integration/continuous deployment pipeline or overnight on the entire repository. However, this delayed feedback disrupts developer productivity,
